Being Biblical: Interpretive Practices
Being Biblical: Interpretive Practices
This chapter examines three kinds of Bible study at the Good Samaritan church. All are concerned with the power of the text to shape faithful lives, but they are distinguished by different approaches to the text and ways of thinking about its authority. Evaluating these activities as practices in relation to the goods of the community requires consideration of their distinctive characteristics.
